Mr Gray REFUSES to read the series. I can't talk with him anymore. We're drifting apart...lol.

1. My dear gray!
I FINALLY persuaded my husband to read them...

He had to admit they were pretty good, esp. after the first few.

What a relief!

Our marriage is safe!

:rofl:

12. I might compromise.
I might watch the movies, given the right additives.
Then the antidote is the The Big Lebowski: Deluxe Anniversary Edition.

4. I've never read them.
I'm sure they're very good. I've just never been interested.

11. I've seen the movies.
The first one I've ever seen in the theater was the most recent one. I love the story, but I feel the need to avoid it for now, at least the books. I'll get to them eventually.

I did read the entire Narnia series last year, so it's not like I'm not reading anything fantastical

16. Audio books.
Just make sure they are turned up really loud so he has no choice but to listen.

Also, hide all headphones that would give him the opportunity to listen to something else.

:evilgrin:

30. I haven't read the series.
I just can't bring myself to do it after reading the first hundred or so pages of the first book. I find fantasy boring and I find kids' books boring and damn, I'm boring. P.S. I also hate cartoons. :P
